well that always good i am trying to do similer stuff...and i have been playing CM since 95/96 too and i am ok just u seem to develop a really gd tactic...i downloaded ur newcastle game...is that tactic the same one u always use or do u use a different one...also many congrats on what you acheived there..i tried with newcastle.but my save got corupted so could not continue..so i am gonna try again...with any team..who would u reccomend

cheers mate! this tactic i have only used for fm12. as for the team i dunno really as everyone has different likes and dislikes but my favourite ever save was my Bilbao story then I had a good game with Udinese. I like Aberdeen so going them is a challenge - it all depends, as they say - different strokes for different folks!

DECEMBER

If you offered me 4pts at the start of the month I would gladly have taken it so I have got to be pleased with this month despite the situation of our defeat against AC Milan. Overall the first half of our season in Serie A has been brilliant. Would gladly take a top 6 finish in the end but I fear 10-12th would seem more likely.

------------------

Castel di Sangro 1-0 Sampdoria
Cosenza

Sneaked the 3pts here - woo!

-----------------

Juventus 1-1 Castel di Sangro
Brandao

Yet another Cosenza set piece leads to a goal. Great result as they had 1 disallowed and Brandao got sent -off too!


-----------------

Castel di Sangro 0-3 AC Milan

Was missing 4 defenders and a goalkeeper for this game plus Kovalik so we were never going to get a result here.

ITALIAN PLAYER OF THE YEAR - Pasquale Cosenza
YOUNG PLAYER OF THE YEAR - Frantisek Kovalik

(Cherubin came 2nd in defender of the year while Kovalik came 2nd in foreign player of the year)

JANUARY

A mixed month really. The high point being the cup win over AC Milan (reserves) and the low point being the defeat against Udinese with a respectable draw against Fiorentina chucked in also. Would be shouting from the rooftops about my win over AC Milan if they didnt play such a weakened side - even if half of them would walk into my team! lol

Off the park I rejected the chance to manage the Republic of Ireland and we had a busy month transfer wise too. Leaving on free transfers were Cassano, Di Tacchio and Geroni while Bandini left on loan. I brought in 4 players with the Danish CB being my favourite.

A comical moment though was when homesick goalie Zaitsev rejected a co-ownership deal to Roma (worth £2.5m) because of their poor league position!!!!!! Incidentally I could have raked in over £20m in co-ownership deals as I had offers for Zaitsev, Twardzik, Roverito, Bertini, Righini, Cosenza, Ibsen, Crisetig, Radosevic, Kovalik, Belmehdi and Karadzole!

------------------------

Fiorentina 0-0 Castel di Sangro

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

------------------------

Castel di Sangro 0-1 Udinese

Absolutely battered them and should have won by 3-4 goals but couldnt finish and got hit by a sucker punch at the end. Thats 4 league games without a win now.

---------------------------

Coppa Italia 1st Round

AC Milan 1-3 Castel di Sangro
Ibsen 2, Polverino

Decided to give Ibsen a start and just as well! Milan had a poor team out though but still a famous win for us!


--------------------------

Castel di Sangro 4-2 Atalanta
Cherubin, Ibsen 2, Brandao

How we only scored 4 I dont know. We had 27 shots, 6 clear cut chances and Ibsen missed a penalty for his hat-trick!


----------------------------

Cesena 1-2 Castel di Sangro
Ibsen, Crisetig

Struggled here against the bottom team as needed a late winner despite playing against 10 men for 86min!


----------------------------

Coppa Italia QF
Reggina 1-2 Castel di Sangro
Ibsen, Guarna (og)
(aet)

The cup run continues!!!!

-----------------------------

Castel di Sangro 1-0 Cagliari
Forestieri

We had 7 players missing for this one so this was a good win.

FEBRUARY

The Italians seem to like stretching out the cup - played the 1st leg of our semi against Roma on the 2nd of Feb and the 2nd leg is going to be played on the 31st of March!!!! Anywho we started the month off with a double header against Roma. Would have preferred to have won the cup game and drawn the league game but hey-ho.

I signed a young striker on a free - just as backup but he has potential.

----------------------

Coppa Italia SF 1st Round

Castel di Sangro 2-2 Roma
Crisetig, Cherubin

Bit unlucky not to win this even if we did equalise in the last minute - chance spurned methinks....


------------------------

Roma 1-2 Castel di Sangro
Cosenza, Kovalik

..... or maybe not! lol. A similar result at the end of March would do nicely!!!!


------------------------

Castel di Sangro 4-1 Bari
Ibsen, Kopecky, Ghezzal (og), Cosenza

Another decent league win - 5 in a row now and up to 3rd - 1pts off top!!!!!!


------------------------

Genoa 1-1 Castel di Sangro
Versleeuwen

A fair result I suppose but a chance missed as Genoa are battling against relegation.

MARCH

What an incredible month - too many good results to describe really so have a look!!!! It seems incredible that we have a great chance to play Champions League footballnext season. Arranged 2 outgoing transfers for next season with Nordstrom and Svendsen leaving on frees.

The youth intake was promising with a few 5 star potential players including one from New Zealand. None of the calibre to go straight into the first team though!

There was one disappointment as our cup run has come to an end.

---------------------

Castel di Sangro 3-1 Torino
Cherubin 2, Belmehdi

A very important win this - Torino were the one team I was thinking we could overtake.

---------------------

Inter Milan 4-4 Castel di Sangro
Ibsen, Cosenza, Julio Cesar (og), Cherubin

Great result - but - we were 2-0 and 4-2 up so disappointing also!

---------------------

Castel di Sangro 4-2 Bologna
Brandao, Versleeuwen 2(1pen), Belmehdi

2 late goals gives us the points - scoring for fun at the moment!


----------------------

Parma 1-6 Castel di Sangro
Cosenza, Versleeuwen 4, Kovalik

Amazing result and finally Versleeuwen is showing what I thought he was capable of!!!

------------------------

Coppa Italia SF 2nd Leg

Roma (2) 5-2 Castel di Sangro (2)
Versleeuwen, Brandao
(Agg: 7-4)

Didnt deserve this in all honesty but will take it on the chin.

APRIL

Lose, win, lose, win and WIN!!!!!! - lol. The harder fixtures are hitting us hard as we didnt find any consistancy but the unlikely win away to Sampdoria gave us a massive boost and we end the month TOP OF THE LEAGUE!!!!!!!! 4 games to go and we have to play the teams in 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th - the ultimate run in.

--------------------

Palermo 2-0 Castel di Sangro

--------------------

Castel di Sangro 1-0 Reggina
Cosenza

Reggina had a man sent-off early on and even had 2 stretchered off in stoppage time!


---------------------

Napoli 2-1 Castel di Sangro
Versleeuwen

Took the lead but couldnt hold on unfortunately.

------------------------

Castel di Sangro 2-1 Novara
Kopecky, Cosenza

A vital win as we haul ourselves back in this unlikely title challenge.

-----------------------

Sampdoria 1-3 Castel di Sangro
Fossati, Cosenza, Versleeuwen

What a fecking result. Took an early lead and went down to 10 men almost straight away but somehow we built on our lead and even missed a penalty!

THE RUN IN

WEEK 36


AC Milan 2-0 Castel di Sangro

The FM gods werent with us here as Italy u-21s had a game so we were without Cosenza, Roverito and Bertini. Then during the game Abate got sent-off and almost immediately after the ref cancelled it out when Karadzole got given a red card. Milan struck twice late on.

Castel di Sangro 1-1 Fiorentina
Versleeuwen

It seems as though we arent allowed to win this title as we were without 7 players due to injury/suspension and international duty. As it was we went behind early on but levelled in the 2nd half. Think my chance has gone to be fair but you never know......
